I have a friend who has a leucistic brown tree snake which was run over or just clipped by a car in front of him,he took it to the vet still alive however it did end up dying and now resides in a bottle preserved and was of breeding age and size etc and others have been seen in the same vicinity.The albino red belly looked to be breeding age and adult size when it was caught.Most morphs originate from the wild such as the bumblebee
bhp and Blondy and don't all you purists try telling me you're playing by nature when you breed your own snakes,if you hadn't purchased those specific snakes they would most likely never have seen each other let alone bred plus most breeders try to breed the nicest looking specimens they can by chosing the best looking snakes to pair up and breed.All this purist stuff is a big load of crap,if any of you were to buy a
GTP more chances than not it would not be a pure Aussie specimen let alone a pair,there's more exotic greens in the country than natives and always have been,in the hobby anyway which is all we are talking about.
If you had a geneticly proven hypomelanistic Darwin or genetically proven striped Darwin and paired it to an albino is it any different to pairing your best looking Darwins together,they all originated from wild caught animals and don't tell me that if we had carpets in all the colours we have just seen with the corns that were bred without crossing or hybridising that new comers to the hobby would choose a regular looking darwin when there's such an array of colourful specimens to choose from...that's my rant like it or lump it try tell me otherwise!!!
